        honestly I think Tarver was phased with the weight, I think that a Tarver who KO'ed Jones or the one who beat Glen even would have won, dude just threw away the fight, he just simply didn't rise to the occasion, like if he told Bernard "it's aight dogz you can kick my ass I don't mind"..

        truthfully he fell into his hands and did little to nothing to even change it. he was clearly phased by the weight but due to his same accusations of Roy Jones he didn't want to look like an idiot so he owned up to the loss. the weight was the determining factor yo because if Tarver fought with a spark, with some sort of effort and not let B-Hop just toy with him he would have beaten him Taylor style, off sheer activity..

        it was one of those right place right times for Bernard because Tarver was a champion who was clearly not the same, Bernard knew when to get at him, he didn't even eye any other champion at 175 he took the bigger name who just 2 or 3 months before fight night had to drop 45-50 pounds..

        he knew what he was doing, it was the perfect fight for Bernard but if Tarver at least waited and gave himself time he could have done better, Bernard hits and holds but he can't do that against someone who's continuously punching whether landing or not just ask Jermain Taylor..

                  If anyone's living off of anyone's name it's Tarver. His one punch knockout did wonders for Mr. Tarver. Prior to that win no one outside of Florida knew who he was. So Tarver needs to rethink his ****** statement and direct it towards himself. The best Tarver has looked since the JOnes knock-out was in last Rocky movie. Tarver is a clown and will get exposed once he fights a credible opponent. He had his chance against B-Hop and folded. So Tarver Please SHUT UP!!
                  couldn't agree more. WTF This guy was a nobody who beat a weight drained past his best Roy Jones Jnr. I hate to be hard on the guy, but goddamn if anyone is living off a name it is this guy

                    I wonder if Tarver realizes Hopkins was a bigger name them him BEFORE they faced off.
